I have this enum class:
public enum IconImageTag {
None("val1"),
USD("val2"),
EURO("val3");
}
given a string which represent a "value" (say `"val"1)
how can I convert it to the corresponding enum?
update
I have tried this. Why is this illegal to access static member from the ctor? I get an error.
private final String value;
private static final Map<String, IconImageTag> stringToEnumMap = new HashMap<>();
IconImageTag(String value) {
this.value = value;
stringToEnumMap.put(value, this);
}
Ideally, you'd build up a Map<String, IconImageTag> and add an appropriate method. For example:
public enum IconImageTag {
NONE("val1"),
USD("val2"),
EURO("val3");
private final String value;
private final Map<String, IconImageTag> valueMap = new HashMap<>();
static {
for (IconImageTag tag : values()) {
valueMap.put(tag.value, tag);
}
}
private IconImageTag(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public static IconImageTag fromValue(String value) {
return valueMap.get(value);
}
}
(I'd probably use a different term from "value" here, to avoid confusion with valueOf() etc...)
Note the use of the static initializer block - any static variables in an enum are initialized after the enum values themselves, which means that when the enum constructor runs, valueMap will still be null.
You can also iterate over every enum.
public enum IconImageTag {
None("val1"),
USD("val2"),
EURO("val3");
private final String value;
private IconImageTag(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
public static IconImageTag getByValue(String value) {
for(IconImageTag iconImageTag : values()) {
if(iconImageTag.getValue().equals(value)) {
return iconImageTag;
}
}
return null;
}
I have a class called - SparqlResource.java and in the class I am instantiating four objects like this-
public static final SparqlResource MARK_SIMPLE_TYPE = new SparqlResource("ldmext/MarkSimpleType.rq");
public static final SparqlResource FORTRESS_HAS_ENVOY = new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasEnvoy.rq");
public static final SparqlResource FORTRESS_HAS_GUARD = new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasGuard.rq");
public static final SparqlResource FORTRESS_HAS_PORT = new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasPort.rq");
Now from another class - JenaLanguageConstructor.java, I am referencing these objects like this-
runOneQuery(SparqlResource.MARK_SIMPLE_TYPE, true);
runOneQuery(SparqlResource.FORTRESS_HAS_ENVOY, true);
runOneQuery(SparqlResource.FORTRESS_HAS_GUARD, true);
runOneQuery(SparqlResource.FORTRESS_HAS_PORT, true);
Now my question is is there any way I can use enums to achieve this, if so then can any one please give me a sample code which I can use to create the enum?
public enum SPARQLENUM {
MARK_SIMPLE_TYPE("ldmext/MarkSimpleType.rq") ,
FORTRESS_HAS_ENVOY("ldmext/FortressHasEnvoy.rq") ,
FORTRESS_HAS_GUARD("ldmext/FortressHasGuard.rq") ,
FORTRESS_HAS_PORT("ldmext/FortressHasPort.rq");
private String value;
private SPARQLENUM(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue(){
return value;
}
}
And you can call it this way:
SPARQLENUM.FORTRESS_HAS_ENVOY.getValue()
EDITED
If you need the SparqlResource object, you can create the enum this way:
public enum SPARQLENUM {
MARK_SIMPLE_TYPE(new SparqlResource("ldmext/MarkSimpleType.rq")) ,
FORTRESS_HAS_ENVOY(new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasEnvoy.rq")) ,
FORTRESS_HAS_GUARD(new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasGuard.rq")) ,
FORTRESS_HAS_PORT(new SparqlResource("ldmext/FortressHasPort.rq"));
private SparqlResource value;
private SPARQLENUM(SparqlResource value) {
this.value = value;
}
public SparqlResource getValue(){
return value;
}
}
Well, creating an enum wouldn't be that hard:
enum MyEnum {
VALUE1("name 1"),
VALUE2("name 2");
private String name;
private MyEnum(String n) {
name = n;
}
//whatever else you need
}
I have a problem with enum in Java. I have an enum that starts from -1:
public enum AipType {
Unknown(-1),
None(0),
AipMod(1),
AipNoMod(2);
private final int id;
AipType(int id) {this.id = id;}
public int getValue() {return id;}
}
The problem is when I use this code to initialize a var of AipType
AipType at = AipType.getValues()[index];
where index is a number in the interval [-1,0,1,2] the -1 mess up the value.
i.e. 0 returns Unknown, 1 returns AipMod and 2 returns AipNoMod.
I used this implementation because I need to set manually the numeric value for each enum case. In other case I have a gap beetwen the values so I have the same problem: I cannot use values() and then access with [ ].
I tried to initialize in this way
AipType at = AipType(index);
but doesn't work.
Ideas ? Thanks...
We don't know what the getValues() method you're using exactly doing. Is it supposed to be values().
Anyway, you can always add a static method in your enum, which returns the correct enum instance for that value, and invoke it wherever you need it:
public enum AipType {
Unknown(-1),
None(0),
AipMod(1),
AipNoMod(2);
private final int id;
AipType(int id) {this.id = id;}
public int getValue() {return id;}
public static AipType fromValue(int id) {
for (AipType aip: values()) {
if (aip.getValue() == id) {
return aip;
}
}
return null;
}
}
If you're invoking fromValue() too often, you might also want to cache the array returned by values() inside the enum itself, and use it. Or even better, a map would be a better idea.
Enum.getValues() returns an array of the enums based on the definition order in the enum class.
getValues() doesn't know about the id field or the getValue() method you have added to your enum.
What you could do instead of calling getValues()[-1] (by the way, you'll never be able to index an array in Java with -1) is to add a static function like:
static AipType getAipType(int id) {
for (AipType a : getValues()) {
if (a.getId() == id) return a;
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException("id=" + id + " does not exist");
}
Just have a Map<Integer, AipType> instead of using values(), and expose access to it via a method:
public enum AipType {
UNKNOWN(-1),
NONE(0),
MOD(1),
NO_MOD(2);
private static final Map<Integer, AipType> VALUE_TO_ENUM_MAP;
private final int value;
static {
VALUE_TO_ENUM_MAP = new HashMap<>();
for (AipType type : EnumSet.allOf(AipType.class)) {
VALUE_TO_ENUM_MAP.put(type.value, type);
}
}
private AipType(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return id;
}
public static AipType forValue(int value) {
return VALUE_TO_ENUM_MAP.get(value);
}
}
That will be completely flexible about values - or you could still use an array and just offset it appropriately.
Can you declare your enum like below?
public enum AipType {
Unknown(-1),None(0),AipMod(1),AipNoMod(2);
private int value;
private AipType(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
public static AipType fromValue(int value) {
for (AipType at: values()) {
if (at.getValue() == value) {
return at;
}
}
return null;
}
};
And instantiate like:
AipType at = AipType.fromValue(-1);
If the ids are completely custom, the only chance you'd have would be to create a map and store the id->AipType mapping there.
Example:
public enum AipType {
... //enum definitions here
static Map<Integer, AipType> map = new HashMap<>();
static {
for( AipType a : AipType.values() ) {
map.put(a.id, a);
}
}
public static AipType typeById( int id ) {
return map.get(id);
}
}
Then call it like AipType.typeById(-1);.
I want to convert this sample C# code into a java code:
public enum myEnum {
ONE = "one",
TWO = "two",
};
Because I want to change this constant class into enum
public final class TestConstants {
public static String ONE = "one";
public static String TWO= "two";
}
public enum MyEnum {
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private int value;
private MyEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
}
In short - you can define any number of parameters for the enum as long as you provide constructor arguments (and set the values to the respective fields)
As Scott noted - the official enum documentation gives you the answer. Always start from the official documentation of language features and constructs.
Update: For strings the only difference is that your constructor argument is String, and you declare enums with TEST("test")
enums are classes in Java. They have an implicit ordinal value, starting at 0. If you want to store an additional field, then you do it like for any other class:
public enum MyEnum {
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private final int value;
private MyEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
}
Quite simply as follows:
/**
* #author The Elite Gentleman
*
*/
public enum MyEnum {
ONE("one"), TWO("two")
;
private final String value;
private MyEnum(final String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return getValue();
}
}
For more info, visit Enum Types from Oracle Java Tutorials. Also, bear in mind that enums have private constructor.
Update, since you've updated your post, I've changed my value from an int to a String.
Related: Java String enum.
Well, in java, you can also create a parameterized enum. Say you want to create a className enum, in which you need to store classCode as well as className, you can do that like this:
public enum ClassEnum {
ONE(1, "One"),
TWO(2, "Two"),
THREE(3, "Three"),
FOUR(4, "Four"),
FIVE(5, "Five")
;
private int code;
private String name;
private ClassEnum(int code, String name) {
this.code = code;
this.name = name;
}
public int getCode() {
return code;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
}
public enum MyEnum
{
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private int value;
private MyEnum(int val){
value = val;
}
public int getValue(){
return value;
}
}
public enum NewEnum {
ONE("test"),
TWO("test");
private String s;
private NewEnum(String s) {
this.s = s);
}
public String getS() {
return this.s;
}
}
What is the correct way to cast an Int to an enum in Java given the following enum?
public enum MyEnum
{
EnumValue1,
EnumValue2
}
MyEnum enumValue = (MyEnum) x; //Doesn't work???
Try MyEnum.values()[x] where x must be 0 or 1, i.e. a valid ordinal for that enum.
Note that in Java enums actually are classes (and enum values thus are objects) and thus you can't cast an int or even Integer to an enum.
MyEnum.values()[x] is an expensive operation. If the performance is a concern, you may want to do something like this:
public enum MyEnum {
EnumValue1,
EnumValue2;
public static MyEnum fromInteger(int x) {
switch(x) {
case 0:
return EnumValue1;
case 1:
return EnumValue2;
}
return null;
}
}
If you want to give your integer values, you can use a structure like below
public enum A
{
B(0),
C(10),
None(11);
int id;
private A(int i){id = i;}
public int GetID(){return id;}
public boolean IsEmpty(){return this.equals(A.None);}
public boolean Compare(int i){return id == i;}
public static A GetValue(int _id)
{
A[] As = A.values();
for(int i = 0; i < As.length; i++)
{
if(As[i].Compare(_id))
return As[i];
}
return A.None;
}
}
You can try like this.
Create Class with element id.
public Enum MyEnum {
THIS(5),
THAT(16),
THE_OTHER(35);
private int id; // Could be other data type besides int
private MyEnum(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public static MyEnum fromId(int id) {
for (MyEnum type : values()) {
if (type.getId() == id) {
return type;
}
}
return null;
}
}
Now Fetch this Enum using id as int.
MyEnum myEnum = MyEnum.fromId(5);
I cache the values and create a simple static access method:
public static enum EnumAttributeType {
ENUM_1,
ENUM_2;
private static EnumAttributeType[] values = null;
public static EnumAttributeType fromInt(int i) {
if(EnumAttributeType.values == null) {
EnumAttributeType.values = EnumAttributeType.values();
}
return EnumAttributeType.values[i];
}
}
Java enums don't have the same kind of enum-to-int mapping that they do in C++.
That said, all enums have a values method that returns an array of possible enum values, so
MyEnum enumValue = MyEnum.values()[x];
should work. It's a little nasty and it might be better to not try and convert from ints to Enums (or vice versa) if possible.
This not something that is usually done, so I would reconsider. But having said that, the fundamental operations are: int --> enum using EnumType.values()[intNum], and enum --> int using enumInst.ordinal().
However, since any implementation of values() has no choice but to give you a copy of the array (java arrays are never read-only), you would be better served using an EnumMap to cache the enum --> int mapping.
Use MyEnum enumValue = MyEnum.values()[x];
Here's the solution I plan to go with. Not only does this work with non-sequential integers, but it should work with any other data type you may want to use as the underlying id for your enum values.
public Enum MyEnum {
THIS(5),
THAT(16),
THE_OTHER(35);
private int id; // Could be other data type besides int
private MyEnum(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public int getId() {
return this.id;
}
public static Map<Integer, MyEnum> buildMap() {
Map<Integer, MyEnum> map = new HashMap<Integer, MyEnum>();
MyEnum[] values = MyEnum.values();
for (MyEnum value : values) {
map.put(value.getId(), value);
}
return map;
}
}
I only need to convert id's to enums at specific times (when loading data from a file), so there's no reason for me to keep the Map in memory at all times. If you do need the map to be accessible at all times, you can always cache it as a static member of your Enum class.
In case it helps others, the option I prefer, which is not listed here, uses Guava's Maps functionality:
public enum MyEnum {
OPTION_1(-66),
OPTION_2(32);
private int value;
private MyEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
private static ImmutableMap<Integer, MyEnum> reverseLookup =
Maps.uniqueIndex(Arrays.asList(MyEnum.values())), MyEnum::getValue);
public static MyEnum fromInt(final int id) {
return reverseLookup.getOrDefault(id, OPTION_1);
}
}
With the default you can use null, you can throw IllegalArgumentException or your fromInt could return an Optional, whatever behavior you prefer.
Based on #ChadBefus 's answer and #shmosel comment, I'd recommend using this. (Efficient lookup, and works on pure java >= 8)
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.function.Function;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Arrays;
public enum MyEnum {
OPTION_1(-66),
OPTION_2(32);
private int value;
private MyEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
private static Map<Integer, MyEnum> reverseLookup =
Arrays.stream(MyEnum.values()).collect(Collectors.toMap(MyEnum::getValue, Function.identity()));
public static MyEnum fromInt(final int id) {
return reverseLookup.getOrDefault(id, OPTION_1);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(fromInt(-66).toString());
}
}
You can iterate over values() of enum and compare integer value of enum with given id like below:
public enum TestEnum {
None(0),
Value1(1),
Value2(2),
Value3(3),
Value4(4),
Value5(5);
private final int value;
private TestEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
public static TestEnum getEnum(int value){
for (TestEnum e:TestEnum.values()) {
if(e.getValue() == value)
return e;
}
return TestEnum.None;//For values out of enum scope
}
}
And use just like this:
TestEnum x = TestEnum.getEnum(4);//Will return TestEnum.Value4
I hope this helps ;)
Wrote this implementation. It allows for missing values, negative values and keeps code consistent. The map is cached as well. Uses an interface and needs Java 8.
Enum
public enum Command implements OrdinalEnum{
PRINT_FOO(-7),
PRINT_BAR(6),
PRINT_BAZ(4);
private int val;
private Command(int val){
this.val = val;
}
public int getVal(){
return val;
}
private static Map<Integer, Command> map = OrdinalEnum.getValues(Command.class);
public static Command from(int i){
return map.get(i);
}
}
Interface
public interface OrdinalEnum{
public int getVal();
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
static <E extends Enum<E>> Map<Integer, E> getValues(Class<E> clzz){
Map<Integer, E> m = new HashMap<>();
for(Enum<E> e : EnumSet.allOf(clzz))
m.put(((OrdinalEnum)e).getVal(), (E)e);
return m;
}
}
In Kotlin:
enum class Status(val id: Int) {
NEW(0), VISIT(1), IN_WORK(2), FINISHED(3), CANCELLED(4), DUMMY(5);
companion object {
private val statuses = Status.values().associateBy(Status::id)
fun getStatus(id: Int): Status? = statuses[id]
}
}
Usage:
val status = Status.getStatus(1)!!
A good option is to avoid conversion from int to enum: for example, if you need the maximal value, you may compare x.ordinal() to y.ordinal() and return x or y correspondingly. (You may need to re-order you values to make such comparison meaningful.)
If that is not possible, I would store MyEnum.values() into a static array.
This is the same answer as the doctors but it shows how to eliminate the problem with mutable arrays. If you use this kind of approach because of branch prediction first if will have very little to zero effect and whole code only calls mutable array values() function only once. As both variables are static they will not consume n * memory for every usage of this enumeration too.
private static boolean arrayCreated = false;
private static RFMsgType[] ArrayOfValues;
public static RFMsgType GetMsgTypeFromValue(int MessageID) {
if (arrayCreated == false) {
ArrayOfValues = RFMsgType.values();
}
for (int i = 0; i < ArrayOfValues.length; i++) {
if (ArrayOfValues[i].MessageIDValue == MessageID) {
return ArrayOfValues[i];
}
}
return RFMsgType.UNKNOWN;
}
